The Garden Bed
A participatory Shadow Puppet Show
September 19th, 2026
Creation and performance of shadow puppets: Rebecca DeWitt and Phoebe Hiltermann
Improvised narration: Maeve
The Garden Bed was a participatory shadow puppet show held at a backyard bonfire in Easthampton. As the full throttle of summer comes to an end, it’s time to put those gardens to bed for the winter! Which is exactly what we did, one insect and flower at a time. Audience members were invited to pick up an instrument and tell the story with us.
